I don't work cattle enough to consider myself a " Cowman " so I can't speak to much on that. We take about 2000 steers out of florida a year but there kept in pastures around 300 acres each and there not hard to find when there bawling behind the feed truck.
Paul I will say though we have the same type of dog in mind for cattle, really that's about what I expect from my hog dogs as well. The tuff part about it is there are not enough people breeding or working that type of dog today. I see the catahoula breed headed in a direction where there main focus is winning they bay pens. I see the yeller dog crowd as a whole focused on either hogs or cattle and not both. The tuff part for me is finding men who breed all around working cur dogs, or what we call in my country " Head dogs " to produce that type time after time. You gotta outcross sometime, even as tight as I believe in breeding you do have to breed out after a while and where do you go to find that " all around " type of dog to outcross with?
